[QUOTE="mammoth29, post: 1812352, member: 36434"]Hello all, I wanted to get a few opinions here as to the new direction of my collecting. I have been collecting Morgan dollars for a few years now, it is by far my favorite U.S. coin and I just like the way she looks! Having said that I have amassed a fairly decent amount of unslabbed ladies of different conditions. I got to thinking that I am not going to be selling these off and will want to leave them to my kids when I go, I then got to thinking about the return to them on my "investment"(in quotations because I collect for the joy of it with little concern about the return right now). After much thought on the matter I decided that I am going to start collecting only slabbed Morgans for two reasons- 1. They can't take a slabbed coin into the local bank and exchange it for a nice new dollar :) 2. They will be able to assign better values to the slabbed coin. What do you experts think? I am ok buying the slabbed coins because I myself enjoy the Morgans in slabs. Having said that, what's the best way to go about acquiring them? I really don't like fleabay and would like to get them someplace else. So to put an end to my rambling, I ask you all if you think this is a good idea? Or is there a better idea, keeping in mind these would be passed on? Thanks for your input and help![/QUOTE]
